Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2020 Sothebys in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work Flags Up Fifth Avenue by Guy Carleton Wiggins. The price achieved of USD 44,100.00 (€ 36,058.87) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Admittedly, works by Guy Carleton Wiggins have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Wall Street In Winter in May 2017 with an auction result of USD 200,000.00 (€ 177,999.29).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2020 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Flags Up Fifth Avenue von Guy Carleton Wiggins zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 44.100,00 (€ 36.058,87) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Guy Carleton Wiggins auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Wall Street In Winter im Mai 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 200.000,00 (€ 177.999,29).
